De ontdekking van de wereld

De ontdekking van de wereld (The Discovery of the World) is a Dutch-language anthology series launched by Uitgeverij Helmond in 1979, running for four issues. Each installment presented a standalone, illustrated exploration of a different historical or exotic location, blending educational travelogue with graphic storytelling. The series featured a rotating roster of European talent, including writers Ruud Straat, François Lambert, and Jacques Bastian, with vivid artwork from artists such as Enric Sió, Guido Buzzelli, and José Bielsa. Though brief, the series stands as a distinctive, visually rich example of late-20th-century European adventure comics focused on real-world discovery.
